evening, everyone. i'm ashleigh banfield in for erin burnett. a deadly shooting in a crowded shopping mall in a suburb of oregon. three people including the gunman are confirmed dead. one other is in critical condition. the authorities say the gunman died of a self inflicted gunshot and that no shots were fired by law enforcement. we have new video taken from inside of the mall. look at the scene as police were clearing this mall and evacuating some of the frightened shoppers to safety. many of them holding their hands above their heads and holding their children at the same time. witnesses are describing a scene of complete chaos as the shots rang out near the food court in the mall 3.30 p.m. local time. there are reports that the shooter was wearing a flak jacket and hockey mask as he moved throughout the mall firing an assault rifle. outside of macy's, gunshots echoed where a man was portraying santa clause in the santa village and taking photos with kids an he heard two gunshots and 15 to 16 more and immediately he said he hit the floor amidst all of these kids. the clackamas county sh

in january and make some recommendations. there is no doubt, the only thing i would say, erin, this one felt different. we've gone through these things in colorado, the gabby giffords thing. this feels different to me. and i think the fact that the nra has been silent for so long is a signal it feels different to them. i think this changed the ground underneath as you little bit. whether or not it is sufficient to do something, i have no idea. >> there is just one thing i want to add. james earlier on said there are two pieces to this. part of it is an underlying violence problem. you have a lot of mental illness, a lot of anger. we are a more violent country than other countries where you have high rates of ownership. that's an unfortunate fact. the other thing i think we need to understand is that the technology for spreading violence is the real underlying issue. think about the way we think about terrorism. a super empowered dangerous individual is a lot more dangerous now than a super empowered individual was 60 years ago. and the technology for people to create their own guns is fright
